history

i created my first blogger account at around 2007, but i did not officially start blogging until september 2008. that was when i started my first art blog called colordripped. unfortunately, that blog no longer exists, though i still do art. on colordripped, i mostly posted art related things with the occasional personal post.
after about about a year or so, i decided to start a personal blog after being inspired by the contributors of blogskins.com. i first had the name frozenbullets. i'm not quite certain where i came up with the name, haha. but that blog basically contained everything that wasn’t art and didn’t go on my art blog. and i even started to do review and tutorials.
i was contemplating for a while on whether or not i should change my site name or not. but once i decided on yes, i wanted a change, and i went for the name fauxteeth. i had an original character that i drew up one day and i named "teeth faux", and originally, i only wanted to use the word "faux" for my blog. sadly, that url was taken, so i ended up just switching the words around. and so, the change happened during the fall/winter (november-feburary) 2013.
and that has brought my blog and me where we are today! :)

hey all! so more than a year go, i bought a box from freedomjapanesemarket.com and made a post about it, which you can read here. i was really impressed with the contents and variety of the box, that i really wanted to try another one. :-)
i purchased the "original" box pack. it includes a lovely origami, one diy candy, and 12-16 snacks.
i paid for this box on february 20th and it arrived on march 3rd, so it took a little less than two weeks to get here. not a bad wait at all! i was super happy about that.

for me 2016, wasn't as bad as everyone else's (apparently). the only thing memorable about it is all the friends i made during college!

unfortunately, i wasn't able to achieve any of my goals for this year;;;;; but that's okay! i was super busy this year with finishing college and taking my tests to get my license. on top of that, i was/am still working a (semi) part-time job.

i had three simple goals for '16. let me also explain how far i got into trying to achieve them.
⓵ fill up a whole new sketch book - i almost made it!! i almost filled up a whole sketchbook! just had a just a few more pages to go. but on a positive note, i was able to try out new mediums! and i actually ~*finished*~ some of the pages. meaning that i didn't leave them to be just simple pencil sketches. i actually inked and added some color some of them. and here's the best part: i actually like them! i'm usually so afraid to do anything with my sketches because i'm so scared i'll mess them up or i won't like the end result. so although i wasn't able to 100% complete this goal, i think i was able to make myself into a better artist. :-) i hope i'm able to continue drawing and playing with different mediums!!
⓶ get all the tattoos on my list - this was a little unrealistic. i didn't take into account all the time and money i would need to accomplish them. and as i said, i was still trying to finish college (and i had to pay everything myself). however!!! i was able to get my sternum tattooed!! i am super excited because i was so afraid to getting this done because of the pain. but it's finished and now it's one of my absolute most favorite tattoos! ♥♥

⓷ create my own legit nail polish line - again, this was hella unrealistic. i needed time and money﹣both of which i did not have, like i mentioned. i only made it as far as (sort of) creating the website, name, logo, and such. i also made plans for the collections of polishes i wanted to release, along with the names and the colors. but that's it, haha;;;; i never got around to mixing colors, which was the main part i was excited for;;;

⦑ goals for 2017 ⦒

◦ finish tattooing my arm
◦ work in an actual salon
◦ get dark grey hair!
◦ drink less soda, drink more water

i tried to be little more considerate of my time, as well as my wallet (haha!) for this new year.

➊ my arm sleeve is the one thing i really want to finish getting done, in terms of tattoos. i just feel like it desperately needs to be completed, because it just looks so unfinished in my eyes. and i got a lot of ideas for it too!

➋ so, as i said above, i got my license! but i still want to attend barber school, which is another 300 hours. i do still need to work where i do now so i have enough money to go. i do have a place in mind that i want to work it. hopefully they'll still have a chair available whenever i get the chance! *fingers crossed*

➌ i also want to attempt to get grey hair again! here are my previous blog posts in trying out different gray/silver hair dyes: ✘✘OO✘✘OO✘✘
this time, i really want to achieve a dark, smokey, grey. i want it to be so dark that it will almost look black. but first, i want to get my hair all one-length again. it's still trying to grow out from an undercut and a side-shave.

➍ and lastly, i want to drink more water! personally, i dislike water. i don't like the taste of it. i drink mostly soda (mainly dr pepper)), and sometimes the arizona green tea when i have it at home. and that's all i drink. however, i've recently made an effort to at least drink one small cup of water a day, and i've already noticed a difference! my face is soooo much clearer!!

also! i signed up to take barber classes!! and i finish paying off my car this year too! i would be excited for all the extra money i would have, but i plan on getting invisalign. ;u;
i expect nothing but great things for twenty-seventeen. B-)

⦉ other long-term dreams/goals ⦊

i don't know if any of you guys know, but i'm working on a semi-""big"" project that's taken me a couple of years to complete. i kind of...alluded (??) to it discreetly in a couple of previous blog posts. so maybe, perhaps if i'm lucky, someone will recognize my project because i really want to create a make-up palette for it, although i'm very aware that this can also take a few more years to accomplish.

thank you all so much for sticking by my for this year! here's to another one!

hey guys! ♡✧( ु•⌄• )
this is a accumulation of the items i purchased from colourpop during their black fridayandcyber monday sales. i didn't buy much because i was giving myself a small budget, but i bought enough to show you guys. ⸂⸂⸜(രᴗര๑)⸝⸃⸃

and that's all i have to show you guys today! i really hope you guys like this new editing style of my swatches/hauls! i really like it better than whatever i was doing before, haha.
this will probably be my last post for the year of 2016. (๑•́₋•̩̥̀๑)ฅ˒˒
but fear not! i hope this new year will bring new and exciting things!
see you guys on my next post~ ❀
